Vibrant printing colors, fragrant currywurst: Art that makes you hungry
On Thursday, July 9, 2026, the exhibition 'Currywurst Now' invites you to a special printing technique demonstration at the Thalia-Mayersche in Bochum. In the basement, a lively event experience will take place, where Kimikunst by Kirsten Mikus will showcase her working method – and curious participants can even create a print themselves. Admission is free.
Introduction: Art meets Culinary – the Currywurst Cosmos
Amid graphics, objects, and humorous references to the Ruhr area icon, a sensual event atmosphere unfolds: the rustling of printing paper, the rhythmic grinding of color, the concentrated mood of the audience. The exhibition runs during the regular opening hours of the bookstore; the demonstration on July 9 will be the hands-on highlight.
Live Printing Art: Workshop Feel in the Basement
Before your eyes, a motif is created – from the inked printing plate to the fresh print. If you wish, you can try printing yourself under guidance. This transforms watching into participation: a vivid example of successful target audience engagement and clever event management in cultural commerce.
Meet the Artist
The artist is regularly on-site on Fridays from 3 to 6 PM and answers questions about the technique, the ideas behind the motifs, and the planning of the event series. This makes the exhibition a low-threshold, yet professionally grounded point of contact for art.
Barrier-free, Central, Relaxed
The Thalia-Mayersche on Kortumstraße is accessible for people with disabilities. Centrally located in the city center, the venue offers a calm, well-organized environment – ideal for experiencing printmaking up close and understanding the details of the production process.
Conclusion
'Currywurst Now' combines humor and seriousness in art. What awaits you: an understandable introduction to printing techniques, authentic insights into the studio's daily life, and a city vibe that celebrates Bochum's creative scene. Come, be amazed, and print along – all for free.
